I'd like to be able to run a report on a preset schedule and then FTP to our web server...
Here is what I have... I have written a custom report that is manually run when updates are made to the membership data that generates a file in HTML and then that file is uploaded to our FTP server using a batch file containing the appropriate FTP commands... The file is then viewable on our web site (members only area).
I want to automatically run this report and execute the FTP on a schedule, so that our person doing the data input doesn't have to do it manually (maybe automatically run at 11PM nightly)..
Any ideas??
Thanks!!

Re: Scheduled Report and FTP
AFAIK, there is no current way to do this in this version of Powerchurch. It may be a good idea to add to the wishlist for the next version. Email "wishlist@powerchurch.com" with your request, and specify how it would make your live easier.bowentz wrote:I'd like to be able to run a report on a preset schedule and then FTP to our web server...

Re: Scheduled Report and FTP
In my original post I had focused on the custom directory that has to be FTPd to our web site, but after thinking a little more about it.. A report scheduler tool would be great, so that daily/weekly/etc reports could be generated and printed/emailed/FTPd without a user having to manually do all these tasks… We have several that our secretary/finance/attendance people run manually and distribute.
